This is a straight port of Python's SimpleHTTPServer for Go.
Note Go exposes directories like .git by default. Be sure those
directories aren't present before starting the server. For more see
golang/go#20759.
$ SimpleHTTPServer 3427
Listening on port [::]:3427
That will serve all of the files in the working directory.
If you have Go, run
go get github.com/kevinburke/SimpleHTTPServer
which should install SimpleHTTPServer into your $GOPATH/bin directory.
Find your target operating system (darwin, windows, linux) and desired bin directory, and modify the command below as appropriate:
curl --silent --location https://github.com/kevinburke/SimpleHTTPServer/releases/download/0.2/SimpleHTTPServer-linux-amd64 > /usr/local/bin/SimpleHTTPServer && chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/SimpleHTTPServer
On Travis, you may want to create $HOME/bin and write to that, since
/usr/local/bin isn't writable with their container-based infrastructure.
